Alamo Cannon

Alamo Cannon

Background: The Friends of the San Jacinto Battleground recently restored a bronze cannon, reputed to have been used by the Texans defending the Alamo. The cannon, currently on display at the Alamo, is believed to have been employed at the Alamo during its siege and battle in February-March 1836. The provenance of the cannon is promising but we are looking for further information and documents to prove that this is indeed a cannon that was used by the Texans defending the Alamo in 1836.
